Why it might work

Light over deepCosmic Pepper brings citrus and aromatic; Sedra brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
A shared threadPowdery, warm spicy, musky and amber run through both.
Same seasonBoth are voted best for spring.
Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Sedra is eternal and enormous, Cosmic Pepper long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.

Suggested from the two fragrances' accords, notes and votes. Not yet tested by wearers.

A starting pointSedra first, then Cosmic Pepper over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
